This is a great thread and I am enjoying the different combinations as well as the photos showing us what you are doing.
I am by no means a tobacco aficionado but I do find that the McClelland tobaccos seem superior to the C&D tobaccos. I would be interested in seeing you do a blend with McC tobaccos, especially the VA, to compare to C&D.

I should say that JP Oriental Dusk is a very fine tobacco.; but Rich told me that he had dropped production, then someone said had resumed; I just checked now and it is listed as available. This one is one of the most novel blends I've smoked and is simultaneously appealing, that is complex, everywhere and all at once. By comparison Dark Horse and Crossroads are tame. Although the description says that it is dominated by Oriental and cigar leaf, I would substitute burley for the cigar leaf. I find it elusive to describe, but big, complex and full flavored easily apply. I have about 2.5 pounds, and for the low price it commands, an outstanding buy.

booker, that sounds good! please wait until august to send me anything though. i'm going to be overseas from 7/4 through 8/2 on biz. so, if you guys see me "drop off the radar," worry not. i will have limited internet access though, so i might be able to check in from time to time.
mike, i have heard of that tobacco! i may have to check it out!

absolutely! kind of like a GL Pease Gaslight cake, except a plug about 1"x2", weighing about 2 oz. i had a bowl tonight off of what i pressed a month ago and it had an even sweeter flavor than before. what are you thinking on the VA plug? 60% red and 40% bright or.....? whatever blending baccy's you send, just include a note. nevermind if you just send the Quad VA. (i try to be careful with the bright because it can BITE! don't know if i'd go any more than 40%.)
